Emzo and SHS Sophia booked their golden ticket 🎫 to the Dublin Horse Show today, winning their qualifier!
Emzo is Voss x Quattro B - while she had a limited performance career herself, she is very well related with multiple performance horses from the same dam line including her sister Grand Prix horse and former RDS Breeders Champion Emme. Emzo was bred by John McDonnell (handler pictured) and produced under saddle by Johnathon McDonnell.
SHS Sophia is by DS Are You With Me, who stands locally at Derryronane Stud! It says Sonja on the breeding paperwork but Johnny (handler pictured) is head of the breeding department and does all the work.

Thank you to Lori Bidwell for having me out to have a spin on your Dirck Z and Fostyne ! 🍀 First day in the books and looking forward to the next. I don’t think Fostyne 🍠 could try any harder at the knees to nose game. Fabulous photos courtesy the amazing multitalented Sara Holtz.

Val is not only a supermodel she is also a future super star. ✨ While small in stature she is electric off the floor with incredible technique, has amazing balance, huge step, and plenty of scope. It also helps that she is one of the most personable horses in the barn, she nickers every time you come near and loves a cuddle. 💫
While Val is here with us for production, she is also offered for 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐞. If you are interested please contact us with any query and for additional information. 🍀
